    I used to ride with my late husband, he drove a log truck. One winter he was hauling from a place that had terrible ups, and downs, and i even bought salt in 50 lb bags, and would drive the way he would go, throw down some salt in the ify places he would need the extra traction. That was fun! I was with him in the mud and everything....I loved it and him, and i really miss him, that's why I like to watch these videos...... good luck to you and keep the rubber side down!

    Grams loves our truckers. In the 70’s, the truckers went on strike because of gas prices. We joined a convoy to support them, driving from I40 and I35 south to the Texas boarder. Bought dinner for a trucker during a stop. Was such a good experience. Years later, after putting my husband on a plane to Korea to serve at the DMZ, a flood happened and my small children and I were stranded because the bridge was out. Stopped at a motel and there were no rooms. A trucker gave up his room and slept in his cab. It was the sweetest thing. Ie said a prayer for truckers every night since. That was 30years ago and I still say prayers for all truckers. Enjoyed your video and will keep you in my prayers!

    I like hearing you talking about your trip. Your speed, what you're doing. The hazards you are aware of that most people on the road don't realize or consider. You have a great voice and you are articulate. I love road trips. I once went from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. To Halifax, Nova Scotia and back. I was given the opportunity to drive the semi. I loved it. But there weren't many female drivers on the road. That was July 1974. Learned a lot about rush hour traffic being a royal pain. But loved the scenery. The best part of watching your video is listening to you. It's almost as awesome as being there. You're an awesome driver. But I'm guessing most seasoned truck drivers are great drivers from experience, many hours on the road and just earning a living. My Dad taught me to drive on a stick. One of the reasons I love a standard. You have more control. If you feel it slip you just drop a gear or two. Try having some mints on you so your throat doesn't get dry from talking and the heat in the cab.if you have a hot drink or water, that helps too. But not too much or you'll be stopping for pee breaks. It's easier for men then women. I learned that on my trip. That and there were no shower's in the women's bathroom's anywhere. I'm very impressed with your driving. I'm betting this ride would be beautiful in the summer. My favorite time is in the fall when all the leaves are turning or have turned. Personally I love driving in all types of weather. I love lightening. That would likely be the only time, I'd stop. Just to watch the lightening. Love the thunder too. My name is Liz. Be well, keep safe and may God Bless you and all of your loved ones. Hope to see and hear more of your video's. If you ever feel like talking. My email is lizkennedy90210@gmail.com

    Thank you, I really like your videos. I live 60 miles from the Gulf of Mexico so it's hard to imagine driving in this snow the way you do. We got 3 inches a few years back and we stayed home except for my 7-mile drive to work and back which I drove really slow. Thanks to all you truckers for bringing us all the things we need day to day.

    Though I hate driving in the winter if I don't have to now, back 40 years ago I did so professionally and this bit here brings me back to '1984, heading through the Canadian Rockies from the foothills of Calgary to Vernon B.C., three days before Christmas, after a snowfall. You've got mad-skills and my hat's-off to you for keeping the shinny side up and muddy-side down......ps:....your voice reminds me of a Cree buddy-of-mine from Red Deer, AL.... laid back and soothing. Stay safe and thanks for your positive contribution to society! Cheers

    Curse words have a purpose in any language as long as they're not saturating a sentence then it's fine to use them for emphasis. Using them, in no way, means you are a bad or good person. There is no correlation.

I have no idea how long he's been at it but I can say. He's a true professional to the T. Being calm in those conditions ain't easy. Did hwy 50 once in the winter, stressed out to the max.

Winter driving is not bad until there is about 6 too 8 inches of snow on the road and you can see about 5 feet in front of you and your forced to use the shoulder to guide where your going. I love night time and the worst conditions. Keeps you awake. Beats a boring ride. Take care and be safe.
